Election 2024 and Trump vs Biden
This election is an election that no one seems to want but primary voters spoken otherwise. I had a discussion with a friend who is hard core GOP and frequent guest on the Donelson Files, and he feared Trump may not be able to win and while both of us agreed that the lawfare against Trump was sign of lawlessness of the Biden administration, there were question of Trump the candidate and his discipline.
There are strengths of Trump, namely he doesn’t care what the establishment feels about him, and he now understand the enemy since they have been fighting him but since he failed to debate, we don’t utterly understand a second Trump administration. He loves America. There are times that he makes statement that often sends the wrong direction including a recent comment to Israel that they are losing the PR battle, leaving one wondering what was going on in his mind. Or when he bragged about how he threatens NATO countries he could care less what the Russians do in his first administration if they didn’t increase their spending. There are times to say things and be diplomatic and there are times they are not, and Trump quite frankly don’t always know when to shut his mouth and what to say.
We do know what a Biden administration will be like and if he dies in office or forced out due to health issues or dementia, the policy will continue. His lawfare campaign against Trump is a message sent to all Republicans, his DOJ will go after his political opponents and his efforts to censor ideas opposed to him are threat to the constitution. His green policies is based on grinding the Middle Class down and his immigration policies have simultaneously undermine legal immigration while his allowance of illegal immigration is changing the nature of our country but not in a racial way but in a class way since even the legal immigration 90 percent of entry are people of color, Asians, Hispanics and Black. Most of the legal immigrations come in with skills and education whereas many of those coming in illegal are poorer and less educated and significant amount are criminal elements. Biden and Democrats want a generation of docile workers and individuals who will be more likely to be dependent upon welfare, producing a future Democratic voting bloc.
With increase criminal behavior of the illegal group along with less education will put additional strain on many communities and worse they will compete for jobs at the lower end which puts these new immigrants in competition with many poorer people of color in particular blacks and Hispanics already here legally for those jobs. Many Hispanics and Blacks are starting to resent the newer illegals immigrants since it is impacting their lives as well the safety of their communities. Recently New York started to hand out debit cards with 1400 dollars for illegal staying in New York, reinforcing the Democratic plan to trap as many of the illegal on welfare before finding a way to make them legal.
Green new deal of Biden means that the average Middle Class will pay higher prices for food, transportation, and energy. Climate change alarmists are perfectly willing to put the basics out of the reach of the middle class.
So, in the case of Trump, we may not know the full extent of his policies, but we know the following. After four years, Trump was the victim of witch hunts and when he had his chance to do lawfare against Hillary Clinton who was truly guilty of misuse of classified documents, he chose not to, but I suspect he may be willing to punish those who punished him and his supporters. Trump will not surrender to the climate alarmists cause, and in his first term, he attempted to enact a more modest foreign policy and his tax and regulation policies were similar to the Reagan approach, but he was not particularly good at cutting the budget. There was no war on Democracy during the Trump first administration but in the Biden administration, there was enough to indicate it is the Democrats who are declaring a war on democracy.
As mentioned in previous writings, Republican governors have led the way of getting things done, whereas our congressional leaders have shown an ability to get nothing done in an embarrassing fashion as they simply eat each other up. House sacked McCarthy, then moved on to Mike Johnson, who is now under threats for how he managed the recent budget fights. James Lankford with the blessings of Mitch McConnell got suckered into a “border compromise” that would have allowed nearly two million immigrants coming across the borders. While GOP governors have shown competency, the Congress has been the complete opposite.
Trump is the last line against the socialism of America and as I have mention in my last two books, the Democratic Party is the party of socialism, but Republican has yet to synergize Populism and conservatism. They have yet decided what kind of party they are. Trump must also decide what party he is leading.
